What's great about this teething necklace is it is 100% Baltic Amber (that's the bead used for inflammation, carpal tunnel, swelling, arthritis, migraines, head aches, back aches, tooth pain, and more)

What size is best? If you're not sure, just use a string to measure where you want the bracelet to fit. The bracelets are stretchable.

How to clean them: Just use hot water and cloth to wipe the beads if needed. Can they get wet? Yes, they can but we prefer to keep them chemical free as the chemicals may interfere with the effectiveness. This often means removing during bath and pool.

Is there actual food in the necklace? No, the colors of the necklace are shades: Milk is a whitish yellow, Lemon is a lemony yellow. Honey is a golden yellowish brown. It can vary light to dark based on when the amber was mined. Cognac is a darker brown and varies from light to dark based on when the amber was mined. Cherry is typically black in color. Occasionally you may notice some red or ruby tints but cherry is mostly black. Multi or Rainbow are a mix of three or four colors above typically. We also have semi-precious rainbow and that mixes the gemstones in our necklaces.

If I purchase two, will they be identical? Probably not! The amber is all natural from the earth. Each bit of tree resin is hardened into a bead to be placed onto the necklace. The beads are sorted by size and strung. But color, shape, texture can vary from necklace to necklace. It is more rare to find two that are exact.

Necklaces are not for baby or adult to chew on, the Amber & other stones releases microscopic amounts of oil, as it warms with the body's natural temperature, that is absorbed into the skin and bloodstream. Baltic Amber contains succinic acid (anti-fever, anti-inflammatory), the compound that gives Baltic Amber teething necklaces the therapeutic quality. **FOR CHILDREN UNDER 3***Necklaces should be removed during naps and when unsupervised.

Baltic amber is an organic substance, a “fossil resin” produced by pine trees which grew in Northern Europe. By having the baby wear the necklace everyday it helps reduce the common symptoms related to teething such as: red cheeks, fever, swollen gums, and diaper rash.

The most often asked question - WHICH IS BEST ? Raw? Polished? Color?

The answer is simple. They all work GREAT. There is absolutely no difference in color or polish when it comes to inflammation. 99% of babies will see results in 30 minutes. Adults may experience relief within the first hour that will continue to grow to about days 4-6. If you do not see results by day 7, contact us, we can swap for amber from a different batch. It is rare, but some DO respond to one color vs another (very rare) and in even more rare occurrences, roughly .005% will not respond to amber at all. We are happy to work with you to exchange or refund if that is your experience. Just buy the necklace you love and it should work well for you!
